I think this article doesn't qualify for an article and doesn't have enough references. Aggarwala2727 (talk) 15:57, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
- Weak delete - the Techradar source suggests that he was a headliner of the event they're actually writing about, which might lend itself to notability, but there don't seem to be any other useful reliable sources at all. Ninth-most-viewed Hindi tech vlogger also doesn't seem all that noteworthy. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 16:55, 24 October 2018 (UTC)

- Keep After reading the nom's comment, noting that the number of references currently cited on any article does not determine notability; indeed, this a a key part of Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup. I believe that WP:GNG is met due to a wide range of adequate sources that could be cited in the article. Many are not of the best quality or are listings, but per no fixed amount of sources are required for any article. One is a standard listing article [1] (in itself is not a quality source) that provides a descend claim to significance for TechnicalGuruji (Chuaudhary's YouTube channel). Another is an article from the Economic Times [2] which, while also notes two YouTube channels (one of which is Technical Guruji) that YouTube has focused their advertising campaign around. One of the better sources [3] that could be added to the article is an interview (published in Livemint) with the head of entertainment for YouTube India makes multiple mentions of Technical Guruji; quoting "Also, in a country we are now buying so many gadgets, that channels like Technical Guruji have become a reference point for consumers and are a vital part of the consumer’s journey as they start to make a purchase." That is fairly clearly enough to entertain the possibility of a SIGCOV argument. Also working the significance angle, here is a (albeit, a possible trivial mention) brief article in which the Times of India reports on Paramarsh announcement that Gaurav Chaudhary, otherwise known as ‘technical guruji’, is being invited to that year's event. I will also note that, due to Technical Guruji being the name of Chaudary's famous YouTube channel, many more search results can be found using the channel's name as opposed to his own. A WP:BEFORE should be conducted for both names, just in case.--SamHolt6 (talk) 21:33, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
